Handmade
- Handmade tires combine many attributes to create the most comfortable and low rolling resistance tires.

Soft
- S in the model name stands for Softer and more Supple, and is applied to tires that utilize a softer durometer tread rubber. The softer S treads are especially used on track and cyclocross tires.
Latex
- Latex tubes are stronger, lighter, super supple, absorb shock, and conform to whatever objects impact it, reducing rolling resistance.
PPS
